The Canadian Cinema Editors (CCE) is pleased to present EDITCON 2026, the ninth annual conference on the art of picture editing, which will take place between February 6th to 8th, 2026.
The conference will host virtual events as well as in person events in Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver, Edmonton, Halifax and Winnipeg. We are also excited to have another EditCon exclusive podcast episode! This will be a special release on January 1st and will be available to everyone!
Canada continues to demonstrate exceptional expertise in post-production — from editors and sound producers to VFX artists, our professionals remain at the forefront of global post production. Canadian post-production talent consistently sets the benchmark for quality, creativity, and innovation. This year, we are proud to highlight the significant impact of these contributions..
Post-production is where storytelling reaches its fullest expression — where raw footage is transformed into extraordinary cinematic experiences. EditCon 2026 celebrates the remarkable voices shaping the craft of post-production, both in Canada and abroad, and the outstanding work they bring to life.
This year’s event features a series of online and in-person discussion panels exploring the art and technique of editing across genres and mediums — from film and documentary to television and assisting. Participants are invited to connect, exchange ideas, and draw inspiration as we celebrate the creative power and global influence of post-production.
In addition to fascinating panels and a podcast, there will be a series of virtual breakout rooms as well as some exciting programming for our in person events. We will also have some amazing products to raffle off!
